2012 Super Bowl Results Payouts

by Tyler Morgan on Monday, February 6th, 2012

The 2011-2012 NFL season concluded last night with another epic clash between the Giants and Patriots. Much to the chagrin of the odds makers, New York, which seemed to have the most backing from the pundits, prevailed 21-17 to win its fourth Lombardi Trophy. Depending on when one got in on the action, the Giants could be had at anywhere from +3 to +2.5 points. 2012 Super Bowl Results Payouts also rewarded those who backed the Under as the game did not finish anywhere near the posted total of 54 points.

The Giants opened as a +3 dog, a number which returned as much as +115 in some cases (Bovada.lv), but that number had gone down to +2.5 yesterday with a -105 attached to it (SBG Global). So if someone jumped on the Giants early, they would have won $115 for every $100 wagered; a late play (-105) would have resulted in a $100 return for every $100 wagered. Those backing the Patriots at -2.5 points (the late line yesterday) would have lost $115 for every $100 wagered (-115).

Moneyline Win: New York +110 to +135

Those who splurged on a straight up Giants victory were rewarded with anywhere from a $110 to $135 return on every $100 wagered. Of course, the early action is always better (if you are on the right side) as a +135 line was no where to be found yesterday. Moneyline Patriots backers lost anywhere from $130 to $140 on every $100 they wagered on a straight up New England win.

Winning Total: Under 55 to 54 Points

The total, in most every case, featured the standard -110 line. In other words, individuals playing the Under won $100 for every $100 wagered while those siding with the Over lost $110 for every $100 wagered.

Throughout the week I provided a number of recommendations on everything from the winning side to some obscure prop bets. Here’s how I fared in my predictions:
